the 43rd president of the united states lied the nation into war, lied 4,443 of his fellow citizens to death in that war, lied about upholding the constitution and lied about weapons of mass destruction. he lied about how he reacted to al qaeda before 9/11 and then he lied about how he reacted to al qaeda after 9/11. he lied about getting bin laden and not getting him, lied about nation building in iraq, lied about the appearance of new buildings in the nation of iraq and lied about embassy buildings in nations like iraq. he lied about trailers with cue mobile weapons labs in them and trailers with cuban prostitutes in them. he and his administration lied by the counting of one nonprofit group 532 times just about the links between al qaeda and iraq that did not exist. only 28 of those were by that president, but he made up for that by lying 231 times about wmd. and yet not once did a democratic elected official shout out during one of his speeches and call him a liar. even when the president was george w. bush, even when he was assailed from sidelines like my own, even when lies came
